OUR MARES


LAZY Y ARROW HONEY GOLD



above- Giving Lazy-Y-Arrow Honey Gold some loving- She did a wonderful job helping to move cattle.

In 1986, our first Tennessee Walking Horse came to live with us. Her name was Ebony's Dak. Fashion.

Fashion died 5 days after foaling Flame. Flame, who was now an orphan, was fed goat milk. Soon, she was drinking out of a bucket. She was finally adopted by a goat who let her nurse as if she was her own offspring. Flame's color was a deep red with only a few white hairs in her forehead- they grew in the shape of the Olympic Torch! Our orphan grew up to be a strong mare and was bred to our foundation stallion, Blue Gold to produce 1995 foal Lazy Y Arrow Honey Gold.
Fashion. Born on the Double Diamond Ranch in North Dakota, she quickly became a beloved member of our family. She went on pack trips to the mountains. She befriended the children and their friends. Fashion was bred to Mr. Tammer- National Versatility Champion and birthed two fillies- a bay in 1990 (later reknowned horse trainer and author, Lee Ziegler's personal horse- click here and scroll to bottom of page to see photo of Sarah on far right) and a chestnut, Flame, in 1992.

Honey Gold left Lazy Y Arrow Ranch as a young horse. Staying in the state of Colorado, she became a family horse like her grandmother. The children at her new home felt the nickname Brown Sugar, which soon shortened to "Brownie" fit her. In 2002, the Hayman Fire that burnt nearly 138,000 acres raged through the mountains neighboring Honey Gold's home. She was evacuated. The woman who helped to evacuate her, a Colorado Mounted Ranger with Cherokee Indian blood, would become her new caretaker. However, when she was trying to find Honey Gold a new home, she mistakenly fell into the wrong hands. When we, here at Arrow's Walkers, learned that Honey Gold was on the market- we immediately took interest. Collene flew in from California to finalize Honey Gold's purchase. However, she had no idea of the conditions in which she was living! Animal Control and the local Sheriff's Department determined that she had to be removed immediately from the place she was being kept. Within 24 hours of reacquainting with Honey Gold, Collene helped to load her and two other "rescue" horses into the trailer as the authorities looked on. She was taken to a beautiful green mountain pasture where she, along with her two stable mates, were rehabilitated. After a summer's worth of loving care, Honey Gold's friends were ready to move to their newfound and caring homes. Honey Gold made her way out to Lazy Y Arrow Ranch East where she joined many of her relatives and quickly found new "buddies" within the herd. She has been ridden by several members of the family- the youngest being 10. She lives up to her name- as she is as sweet as can be! Honey Gold is another treasure left by her dam, Flame, and sire, Blue Gold. She has one full sister, Lazy Y Arrow Flaming Gold, in the herd and another, Diamond Dust, in Missouri. She is the aunt to many foals that we have retained by her full brother, Arrows Golden Flash.
